A few weeks ago I announced the availability of the release candidate for the Jubilee release of RSS Bandit. We got a lot of good feedback from our users on that release and have fixed a ton of bugs based on that feedback. With the addressing of these bugs we believe the product is now stable enough for a final release. Thus we have refreshed the release candidate installer and made it available at http://downloads.sourceforge.net/rssbandit/RssBandit.1.5.0.9.Jubilee.RC2.zip. Our plan is to watch for feedback on this release candidate and if there are no major issues left, then we will release a final version with a version number of v1.5.0.10 on March 3rd, 2007.

Below is an exhaustive list of the bugs that have been fixed in the past three weeks. Since there are quite a number of them, I've highlighted the fixed issues that were particularly annoying to users based on the amount of feedback we got on them.

Fixed: The search index somehow becomes corrupted then every
couple of minutes a dialog box would pop up with the error message
"Unexpected Exception on SaveApplicationState() --->
System.IO.FileNotFoundException"

Fixed: Marking an item as read in a search folder doesn't mark it as read in the main feed.

Fixed: Some feeds refuse to display with the following error
message - "Error retrieving feed ... from cache: Item has already been
added".

Fixed: Save Search button was not working in the search panel

Fixed (completed): Back button chevron should be removed when web browsing
